I am 59 years old and still working. In the past 6 months or so, I've started to notice that my writing has started to tranpose numbers and letters - and my memory is noticably deteriorating. I don't believe I've had any dyslexia issues during my earlier years. Is it possible for dyslexia to start this late in life or could it be another problem?

Please go to a Dr. of Neurology, this does not sound like dyslexia.

I really don't want to make you worry, but it sounds like you may be at the beginning stage of a type of dementia. Several tests must be done in order to make a diagnosis, but I believe a MRI is a good place to start. Best of luck to you, I am praying for you.
